I want a 1911, but not another expensive muzzle to feed so I haven't pulled the trigger on this one yet. The kimber conversion may be what I need to do.
I see Gander mountain selling browning 1911 22's for $399 and wonder if they can be converted to 45 later... hmmm...


No, they cannot. It isn't even the same size.

Neither can the Kimber .22lr 1911, IIRC. Best to start with a "real" 1911 and get the conversion for it - or just get one of the GSI 22lr 1911 copies and get a separate .45.

Lunatic fringe....we all know you're out there.
